Just when you think you've seen every stupid looking thing ever made, 1968 Mohs' Ostentatienne Opera Sedan. Built by Mohs Seaplane Corporation of Madison, Wisconsin.
notice there are no doors, you enter through the hatchback
Dude, a Rolls Royce on acid! Mohs built floats for floatplanes in Madison WI. This beastie had 20-inch wheels and sealed-beam taillights. The chassis and engines were from International Havester and so a 304 or 549 V8 could be had. Standard equipment included a refrigerator, a 2-way radio that had a pair of base stations for home or office, a gold-inlaid Walnut instrument panel, velvet upholstery, Ming Dynasty carpeting, special safety bucket seats, a 110-volt converter, a butane furnace, and a multi-fuel-capable induction system. Moh's also created what would today be called a luxury SUV called the Safarikar also built on an IH chassis. The exterior of the Safarikar was completely covered in padded naugahyde.
The Mohs Ostentatienne...think I got the spelling right. It's the white walls that really set it off, don't you think?
ReplyDeleteYow.
